2 hours of full entertainment of your life

Rating: 8/10 (16 July 2013)

Now for Pacific Rim. Yet again a late entry to the Agartala Rupasi Cinema Hall for us and maybe we missed the first entry of Giant alien like monster called "Kaiju". These aliens are into 600-foot monsters instead of mile-wide flying saucers, so they begin pumping huge beasties through the dimensional rift. Killing these monsters with conventional weapons takes days and leaves ruined cities strewn across the Pacific coast, so the only reasonable course of action is to build giant nuclear-powered robots called "Jaeger" that can take them on in mixed-martial-arts battles or you can say Mortal Kombat. And good thing is that No one person can pilot these giant robots - it takes two carefully matched people linked together in a neural interface called The Drift, they can mind-meld with their giant robots and fight with these monsters. For one of this Drift in a scene, feel very near to one of my favorite movie Inception and that's clinched my heart to stay in the hall. And better thing is that these robots are much more advance than the Iron Man or any other counterpart. I feel it's never been done this well before, and probably never will be again. The fights are clever and creative, because the giant monsters adapt to the tactics of the robots, which in turn receive weapons upgrades and redesigns. You never know what's going to happen next, and all of the battle scenes are eye-popping. Though they tries a bit research part, but unable to shift the magnetism of Jaeger or Kaiju.
Acting wise, there is nothing to say more, because there is not much space left to show the actor skills. It's more about fighting and fighting. But few mixed tiny romance and emotion will fulfill your requirement too. Charlie Hunnam and Charlie Day are as good as their character in the film. Love the way Rinko Kikuchi as beautiful and mysterious Mako Mori slowly pronounces the English in a precocious little-girl voice on each occasion she converses and her emotion with Stacker Pentecost (Idris Elba). And find irresistible when Guillermo Del Toro calls his old Hell Boy star Ron Perlman for a cameo with his golden shoe.
But again some flaws are there. Interpretation in the mind of Kaiju looks very messy, less than real. While we have no choice but to accept the notion that we'll have the ability to construct 250-foot-tall robots just a few years from now—robots that can somehow be transported by eight tiny helicopters—it is never explained why chemical or biological agents, for example, were never deployed. And even question remain why they did not try any missile for these monster without disturbing the city life when they well aware their expected return. If we did not miss, there should be an explanation of original ingress of Kaiju.
But overall, a lot of middle-aged guys like me are going to feel 15 years younger while watching it, and that's not bad value for your expensive theater ticket. You will experience the 2 hours of full entertainment of your life. A must watch if you are near to a Inox or any other equivalent where you will be blessed with the movie on the screen and 3D glass on your eyes.
